I just spent the time to check my other K3 ... its AM power is also in the 22-25 watt range across HF (20 Watts on 6M). I have TXG VCE set to +1 dB on s/n 622 (factory assembled) and +0.5 dB on s/n 1450 (kit). TXG VCE is set to make the PEP output on SSB as measured on an LP-100 the same as the CW power measured on the same meter. If I reset TXG VCE to 0.0 dB, the AM carrier power drops 2 to 3 watts depending on the radio and the SSB PEP is 10 to 15 watts low. > This menu entry should probably apply only > to SSB modes. I'll review this with our DSP engineer. I don't know ... it seems to work properly here. If you elect to not make it global, it may be necessary to provide separate TXG settings for voice (SSB), AM and AFSK A/DATA A (DTA) ... or at least SSB/Data and AM. 73, ...
